In Linkfans, domain migration mainly means pointing your domain’s nameservers to Linkfans so we can manage DNS for you.

Step 1: Open the Setup Guide in Linkfans

Follow these steps to open the Custom Domain Setup Guide popup.

1. Go to Own Domain

   • Open your dashboard and navigate to Own Domain.

   

2. Click Import Own Domain

   • Click the + Import Own Domain button to start adding a domain.

   

3. Add your domain to trigger the Setup Guide

   • Enter your domain (or subdomain) and click Add.

   • You’ll then see the Custom Domain Setup Guide popup with the nameservers you need.

   

Step 2: Update nameservers using the Setup Guide

1. Log in to your DNS provider

   • For example Cloudflare, GoDaddy, Namecheap, IONOS, etc.
   • If you followed our recommended flow, this will usually be Cloudflare.

2. Open the nameserver settings

   • Go to your domain settings and find the Nameserver section (sometimes under “DNS” or “Domain” settings).
   • If DNSSEC is enabled, turn it off temporarily as the guide suggests.

3. Replace your current nameservers with Linkfans nameservers

   • Use the two values shown in the Linkfans Setup Guide, for example:
     • ns1.linkfans.ai
     • ns2.linkfans.ai
   • Save the changes in your DNS provider.

4. Confirm the change in Linkfans

   • Go back to the Setup Guide popup and click “I’ve Updated Nameservers”.
   • Linkfans will periodically check your domain until the new nameservers are active.

5. Wait for DNS propagation

   • Registrars can take up to 3–24 hours to fully process and propagate nameserver changes (often faster).
   • Once verification is complete, you’ll receive a confirmation and can start assigning this domain to your pages.
